The folks at Forensics International obviously have their heads crammed

This is called "marketing". I highly doubt they turn away
potential customers with cash in hand. "We'll make an

closely allied with the law enforcement market, seems
to thrive on this sort of Sgt. Standanko attitude.
Or at least people selling software to this market
seem to think it helps. It's pervasive. Perhaps it
helps local law enforcement feel better about parting
with public funds.
